The Moon is in Virgo.

The Sun in Aries squares Saturn in Capricorn.

As the Moon passes through organised, efficient and analytical Virgo, you feel driven to accomplish things today especially if it’s at work, your health or at home organisation.

Last year on December 21st, Saturn returned to his home sign of Capricorn, as well as joining the Sun and beginning an annual cycle. This cycle has brought forth some  seriousness, stability and responsibility to the table. Today we reach the First Quarter Square between them, it’s a day  for action, reflection and a day to face to reality!

The Sun in Aries squares Saturn in Capricorn. Creating tension and a lot of friction between our conscious self/Ego and the planet of Karma, Mastery and lessons.Today will be a great time to consider or review what your responsibilities are? What blocks or issues are holds you back? What is striking a nerve of late? As your patience on these matters are here to teach you maturity, wisdom , self-respect and mastery!Face all of  your circumstances with determination as these issues are what we are meant to be  learning.

Today remember that all this intense energy will pass. Have a great Easter everyone and a wonderful day!

The Moon enters Virgo.

Retrograde Mercury in Aires semisextiles Neptune in Pisces.

Today brings with it a Virgo Moon, inviting a more relaxed energy and slowing us down especially after the previous two days of dramatic up and downs of the Leo Moon.The Virgo Moon energy is more patient, organised and focused. It also has the ability to solve problems as well as being flexible and adaptable if needed.

Retrograde Mercury in Aires semisextiles Neptune in Pisces. Connecting our communication and conscious with the planet of intuition, illusion and mysticism. Mercury/Neptune combining energies can be great for deepening and developing our spirituality, intuition and psychic ability! Today work on your inner knowing. Meditate, have a guess who is calling before you pick up the phone, work with tarot cards, journal, dream and be creative! Your inner world and day dreaming is key right now! However, please keep in mind that Mercury is in retrograde. This is not the time to begin something, especially if it is quirky and seems brilliant just find your excitement in what is already on the table, whats in front of you, dream big, get your ideas and plans together for the right time!

 

Venus aligns with Uranus in assertive Aries today. You may feel rebellious and impatient. This alignment brings out our rebellious and imperial side! However, the transit of Uranus and Venus encourages some unwanted or wanted depending who you are intense and sudden changes in your  relationships, money, love and creative projects,l especially if you have been craving change! Expect the unexpected! Don’t take risk you are not willing to see through! Remember, this will pass in a few days, don’t jeopardize  your life especially relationships on a passing whim, emotion or restlessness.

Today we will find that we will go out of your way to avoid boredom, seek  more stimulation and excitement. Have a great day!

The Moon is in Leo.

The Moon forms a trine to Mercury.

The Moon continues its transit through fun-loving playful Leo, meaning we get another day to relax into easy, playful, child like self-expression. It’s a another day we crave love and attention. It’s also great for those who have children or children in their lives to be spontaneous! Remember the joy of imagination and playing and consider spending time with them in simple, creative playful ways, bake cupcakes, play hide and seek or who doesn’t love to dress up?

When the Moon is in Leo we must also remember that life can be dramatic! Some will find themselves either center stage for good reason or for not so good reason. So watch how you treat others today, avoid being vapid and watch for your high expectation’s of others. Balance Leo’s open-hearted generosity with its s self-contentedness.

The Moon forms a lovely trine to Mercury today. This harmonious trine helps us express ourselves in a more balanced way, words will flow easily and fluent. So if you have been waiting for the chance or a right time to get those certain words out and communication something special to someone today is the day! Our thoughts are balanced and it is especially a great day to talk your feeling, affections and intentions towards others.

 

Have a great day!

Are you suffering symptoms of Mercury Retrograde?

Published on by andycandypants2 Comments

Yes , we are in a Mercury Retrograde

Mercury Retrograde is great at helping bring to our attention those shadow parts of us, parts we may of felt that didn’t need healing. Mercury retrograde is great at highlighting where the healing lies and the truth can be found. In Mercury Retrograde communication, travel, technology, equipment, travel and contracts can be upside down, backwards, misinterpreted, breakdowns and unnecessary disagreements occur.

At work, you can find yourself frustrated even though you’re sure that you’ve explained yourself clearly, people around you do the opposite and your fail-proof computer crashes. You experience equipment and mechanical breakdowns of all types even at home, when out and your car!

Mercury does rule the mind, mental clarity, talking, self-expression so all these over this period can become  unreliable, filled with misinformation where important data is missing or misunderstood. During this period we should watch for too hasty communications as Mercury rules our communications and thought process and well in Aires we can become very direct ,assertive and self-centered. Say what must be said but try to remember to do so with kindness and compassion.

Mercury Retrograde in Aires gives us the courage to take action on something you have struggled with over the past few weeks. What curve balls have you been dealing with over the past month? What repetitive issues seem to be surfacing? Career, a friendship, your living circumstance, a draining relationship?

If you  have found yourself or parts of yourself being exposed, and in order to work on yourself you are stressed you must remember that you also need to love yourself unconditionally. When there is a lot going on give yourself some space, as much as the mind wants order, you will find when too much is going on we get agitated and stressed. When there is times of stress you must remember you are feeling a lot of things, so give yourself some space. Give yourself permission to experience those emotions instead of categorising it, organising it. Just let what needs to be revealed,happen. In these topsy upside and can be dark days of stress and frustration use your energy and see the small joys and blessing in your day. Even though you may be suffering and want to go on strike, see the small happy moments in the day and the lesson in the bad situations! Don’t stuff your feelings away,

The discomfort  and madness we are going through and experience on any level in Mercury Retrograde or not there is a choice to choose love and happiness! You can love someone and be mad, you can be frustrated but still caring, go with the flow, be present to everything that’s going on during this period, and don’t disqualify it because there is discomfort!! It often takes deep courage to admit to your mistakes and it is likely that is a necessary part of the conversation you must have. We all make mistakes, take responsibility and move forward with determination and love.

Rule by your Heart not the EGO. 26/03/18.

Monday March 26th, 2018.

Moon enters Leo.

The Moon leaves its transit of nurturing Cancer and it enters excitable Leo this morning. When the Moon is in Leo, we are proud, playful and crave the spotlight and attention!We have a need to be creative, expressive and playful. If there is any area of your life that needs an added boost of sunshine, playfulness, attention and energy, today is the day to focus on those areas and harness the energy wisely! Our unique qualities and talents will come out today have some fun! If we are authentic and true to our self and have the back bone to prove to someone your worth today you will benefit tremendously

However, on the shadow side of Leo energy is that we can be too proud to back down when it is needed! We can over take others time to shine! We can be very egotistical and we can boast too much self-esteem that comes across in the wrong way! It’s also a time to think about and ask yourself whether you’re being too proud in some situations.

But overall it’s a great day to show yourself some self-love and attention, shine today and be proud of who you are!

 

Happy Monday!

Don’t Try to Control Those Around You.23/03/2018.

Venus in Aries squares Pluto in Capricorn.

Mercury  in Retrograde in Aires.

Today brings a powerful transit between Venus in Aries squares Pluto in Capricorn. This  transit will cause tension and friction between the planet of love and finances and the lord of the underworld and change! This means there will be intensity and possible turmoil in our relationships over the next 3 days! If anything, this will demonstrate the importance of deep change and  the importance of getting out of our own way and seeing all sides to any story or argument in your loving relationships. Issues or stuff that we are not looking for at the moment can arise right now. Thanks to Mercury Retrograde, everything is being brought up to the surface for healing, whether we like it or not!

This is not all bad! If you are in a less than stable, unhealthy partnership, where you finally realize your own self-worth this could bring the final break or push you need to make a change. On the other, if you are in a balanced healthy relationship this transit could give you that extra push to bring up those little things that have been bugging you lately! Welcome this change  to occur so that we can move forward in a positive way (although at the time it may seem like a curse, but you will see the blessing in the lesson soon enough).

 

As I have mentioned it is Mercury retrograde be acutely aware of how you are communicating between yourself and your loved ones. Allow yourself to loosen your grip as power play dynamics and control issue will come into play and will be very strong! Just steer clear of this and especially let go of trying to control every situation, being pushy, playing a victim, don’t get jealous, don’t give into power dynamics, or obsessing and becoming very  possessive.

The reality is that you can’t control others full stop! Release your attachment to the outcome.

With Venus in Aires and Mercury retrograde this is also not a time to make new financial investments, Even if the attraction is intensely powerful

Happy Friday and have a great weekend!

MERCURY RETROGRADE in Aires! 22/03/2018

MERCURY RETROGRADE in Aires!

The Moon is in Gemini.

By the time you wake up this morning, the Moon has entered inquisitive, ambitious, intellectual and restless Gemini. While the Moon makes her way through Gemini, you will find that not only yourself but others  tend to be more light-hearted, social and talkative.Gemini in is an Air sign so thoughts and communications come into play today. Curiosity and being alert of your surrounds and the conversations being had will spark your interest,  also you will be more aware and more alert of others intentions. However, today being Mercury Retrograde  don’t be surprised if your communications or you normally quick ways if thinking somehow fall flat.

Mercury, the communication and mental realm planet that rules Gemini turns Retrograde This may leave you feeling somehow stuck in your communications in the way you think, your travel plans, business plans, home  loans and contracts.

During this period we may struggle or have some difficulties saying what we want to say, or saying things that leave you wondering” Why the hell did I just say that, i didn’t mean it in that context” well that’s if you can even manage to get the words out.

Keys to remember during this Mercury Retrograde…

  • It is best not to start new projects, but it is a great time to reconsidering an initiative venture or project. It’s great for coming up with new ideas and adventures, but remember do not pursue them yet!!! Dream, draw up plans, make list get the all the  information together first and review review review! It’s also strong time for returning, revisiting and rethinking an old project or pursuit you have left on the back burner.We can gain new clarity during  this upside down period!
  • The shortness of  Aries communications is magnified making it necessary to be especially careful with our choice of topics and wording. The chances of sharp or  harsh comments can do some damage in the long run.
  • Mercury rules information, communication, reasoning, our manner of thinking, travel, technology, logic and how we express all of these! Its our thought processes and all Mercury related things right now can be off-center. It may feel difficult to say what you want to say, and you can leave conversations  wondering if you were understood. Communications are scrambled. Expected the unexpected and clarify all that you do, travel plans, communication , instructions, save and back up your work and even get people to relay what you have just said to them to avoid mishaps. And if you don’t get whats being said relay it back! everyone is experience this Mercury Retrograde!
  • As I mention Mercury is related to technology so for the next month if you can avoid it, it is not the best time to buy a phone, new computer or tv.
  • Signing your life away for a new home, a lease, car or any contracts BE CARE read all the information, as not all the information is not in yet or could be missing. Human error, computer error and Mercury error is in play and we do not want to regret doing anything later.

When Mercury Retrograde is in Aries, our mind and thoughts are going at a thousand miles an hour! Everything is GO GO GO, we may get frustrated if people are not thinking or doing as quick as we are. Aries energy when communicating is magnified.. EEk making it necessary to be especially careful with our choice of words, tones and topics.There will be a chances that we may become sharp, blunt or unemotional when making comments and this can do damage. If you feel like you can’t get out of your head and its building up to a point of frustration and you want to explode take a breath, go for a walk, exercise and take some time to reign your thoughts! Do not let your temper, stubborn, impulsive mind take over your mind and how we communicate to others. Aires Mercury Retrograde has the ability to make us feel as what we say and feel is the right way, and have the arrogance to ignore the facts, When people who question our logic and reasoning we can act impulsively and aggressively! As my mother also told me ” Andy THINK before you speak or act ”

 

Some say this will be a time of tension, however, we need to remember the positive side of  Mercury in Aries. Mercury in Aires wants progress, answers, no more procrastination. Its time to push our self to make those positive steps to benefit our self in the long run. Get through obstacles, push our own boundaries, be selfish for once.We have the courage to get the message across and speak up for our self when normally we would sit in silence. When Mercury is in Aires especially when its stationed retrograde we have a great opportunity  to taker a step back and have a deeper look at our past decisions, patterns, behaviors and ideas from a new and possibly enlightening  perspective. Change is highly possible!

Please ,carefully consider how to manage the turbulent energy of Aires this Mercury Retrograde which continues until April 15th. Remember, Mercury retrograde is a powerful time for accomplishment if you plan and prepare accordingly. Something I really need to take note on!

Happy Mercury Retrograde gang!

Crescent Moon in Taurus.

The Moon in Taurus opposes Jupiter.

Today the Moon is still in steadfast grounded Taurus. The Moon and Taurus go really well together.They are both creatures of comfort and habit! Today allows your heart to embrace the excitement and pleasure of the finer things in life, such as food, relaxing, entertainment, treating yourself to the naughtier things in life or by simply enjoying all the beauty that is all around you. Sensual pleasures and activities along those lines appeal now more than usual, as Taurus is ruled by Venus who is all about love! Taurus is a fixed, Earth sign that represents being grounded, reliability, growth and appreciation. A lesson we could learn today is patience, acceptance and to bring beauty into our lives. Such as buying some fresh flowers for the house or a scented candle or some art. We could be kinder to yourself and others, give someone the benefit of the doubt or treat yourself to a massage.

The Moon in Taurus opposes Jupiter. Jupiter is the lucky planet of expansion and abundance but when these to opposes each other we’re tempted to go overboard on any activity that is taking our fancy., especially if it is to combat boredom. Taurus as I have mention is ruled by Venus who is also about money and finances and with Jupiter in play we may go over board on our spending! So watch your wallet today and watch yourself overindulging especially if you are trying to watch your weight as over eating and drinking is a major possibility today!

Also, remember guys tomorrow Mercury stations retrograde in fiery Aires until April 15th. If you have noticed  communication breakdowns, travel plans muddled up and technology mishaps have been occurring this week it is because we are leading up to Mercury retrograde. Our communication and thought process could get a tad feisty, egotistic and forceful more than normal during this period. A good way to keep your mind clear is to prepare and choose your battles wisely ! Start a list of all projects or anything else that needs to be done or has been left undone over the past few months, ponder on them and don’t relaunch them until this period of Mercury Retrograde is over! Don’t sign any official documents  unless its necessary! Consider yourself warned!

 

Have a great day!

Equinox season! Resurrection, rebirth and renewal. 20/03/2018

The Sun moves out of Pisces and into Aries.

The Moon is in Taurus.

The Spring and Autumn equinox

Today marks the Spring/ Autumn equinox. Depending where you are in this lovely world. Spring in the northern hemisphere and  fall/autumnal equinox in the southern hemisphere.

As I live in Australia its our Autumn Equinox. Autumn holds not only a physical change of the weather and land, but holds a spiritually unique place within all of us. Autumn isn’t about death and decay of our surroundings its more than that! It is about change and endings. Endings not just of seasons  but of our inner and outer world.

Remember every journey must find its end, crops are harvested, plants wither and even as the natural world begins to fade before us, we make sure to align ourselves to the progression and change of the seasons furthermore our self internally. This is a great time to have a self review, figure out what needs changing or letting go of! What is blocking you or getting in your way? Let it wither like nature around you.

For all you guys up north the Spring Equinox is a about new beginnings, a magical exciting time of planting seeds, setting intentions and starting new cycles, with the added bonus of the New Moon energy you really can make positive changes and achieve your dreams.

The Moon moves into a more steady and solid place today as she transits  into reliable, grounded Taurus. Making it a great day to enjoying creature comforts, over doing it on food, wine and focusing on what things you can bring into your life that would make you happier and more comfortable! Beauty and safety is the key today!

The Sun moves out of Pisces and into Aries. As the Sun makes her entrance into Aries our self and ego will get an extra boost of strength, leadership, will power, shine. We may become more dominant and want to take charge. No obstacle will stand in our way or our power! However, on the shadow side of this “go and get them sign” becoming overly ambitious, having too much pride, overly self-expressional and disregarding others opinions and feelings. we also tend to become very confident and cocky. This sign is very much “I am therefore I am” and it always  comes back to me, myself and I. Take the good and balance it out with the rest! Be strong but no forceful, be a leader not a dictator.

The shift is  palpable for everyone!

This week Mercury’s is slowing down motion as he is about to station retrograde on 22nd! Mercury/Venus energy  is great for communicating and relaying our feelings and thoughts.
